The "eric owens" that wikipedia links to in the 'sf production' section is definitely not the eric owens that performed in that production. The operatic eric owens is a large black opera singer, not a skinhead folk singer.

[edit] adams minimalist?

is it really accurate to call adams a minimalist composer? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.17.62.12 (talk) 08:07, 7 November 2007 (UTC) update: i just looked into it... this should probably be changed. by the time of this production, adam's work can't really be considered minimalist any longer. in light of his ouvre, it seems that it's probably accurate to say that he was a minimalist composer earlier in his career, but has since moved into something like 'post-minimalism.' his work doesn't currently and hasn't recently fit the minimalist mold. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.17.62.12 (talk) 08:12, 7 November 2007 (UTC)

I agree Adams is better described as post-minimalist these days, so I'll change that link to the post-minimalist page where he is actually already listed! 87.194.75.125 (talk) 20:00, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
